This is why I ask our alumni to give back to TSU yo common university endowment causes via the TSU Foundation in a “major way” all the time, every year, because we are so far behind in our giving efforts. In the meantime when we are not giving back to enrich and empower our beloved TSU, other schools are advancing further ahead of us in the giving back game.
